1991 Galant VR-4 965/2000 White, 108,000 miles.
I bought this car as a project and have not finished it, got too many other projects right now, and I need to get our finances in order so I can put money towards the other projects.
It is very decent for an 18 year old car, and an excellent car to restore or mod.
Presently it is just about bone stock with the exception of the Evo III FMIC (not installed right now).
The head underwent a mini rebuild just before I bought it and the head gasket was replaced and the timing belt done. The motor is in very nice shape. The tranny, transfer case rear end are all in excellent shape. There appear to be no leaks from the transfer case, and I was told the recall work was already done on it, which is very common for these. The 4WS is also intact and works.
There is no clutch installed currently. The old clutch was put in my other vehicle since I planned on putting an ACT 2100 in this one.
The only major problem is the blown 14b turbo that needs rebuilt, or replaced since it has a ton of shaft play. It was pulled before it began destroying itself. The intercooler piping will need to be redone as well since I pulled it all and threw it away due to the questionable appearance and likely several boost leaks (which would explain the condition of the 14b that was on there).
The interior is about a 6/10. It will clean up nicely with a little elbow grease and a couple odds and ends replaced. The one front seat has a tear, the other is separating at the seems a bit. All but the passenger side front window is tinted, so the tint should be removed and/or redone. The carpet has been redone and looks very good. The interior does have some custom "touches". There are no speakers in the dash or rear deck present, but I have a set of 3.5's for the dash that I can throw in with the deal, they're not blown or anything and have seen little use. Other than that, the door locks, power windows, etc. all work.
The AC is present and works, but needs to be recharged and converted for the new freon I believe. The condensor and compressor are both present as well as both cooling fans for the radiator.
The battery has been relocated to the trunk, and is larger than stock. I'm pretty sure with a quick charge the battery is just fine, since it has not been drained and looks to be pretty new. I recommend some of the underhood wiring for the battery be redone, but nothing big.
It has a rebuilt ECU, not under warranty any longer, but the caps were replaced with upgraded ones and it works great.
The paint was also done recently. With some buffing and polishing it would look good. I would say about a 7/10 on the body mainly since the front bumper was hacked up for the FMIC, but other than the front end, the car looks good. All glass is good, no leaks, and all looks very good.
There are aftermarket wheels on the car now, but I do have the stock white ones that came with it. It is up to the buyer on which wheels I include. Either set will definitely need tires though, since they are dried out.
It is a florida car, and has been it's whole life, so there is absolutely no rust and overall is clean, granted it is 18-years old afterall.
Other than that, I think I have pretty much covered everything.
The car is located in St Petersburg.
I'm asking $1,200 or shoot me an offer.
